Dear Mehdi:

As we have discussed, Pumatech, Inc. (the “Company”) has agreed to extend certain benefits to you for so long as you remain the Vice President of Products and Services of the Company. This letter sets out the terms of our agreement. Capitalized terms are defined on Schedule 1, attached.

1. Acceleration of Vesting. Upon a Change of Control, you will automatically receive twelve (12) months of accelerated vesting of all outstanding stock options then held by you at the time of a Change of Control; provided that your service shall not have terminated for any reason (including without limitation, for death or disability) prior to any such Change of Control. If your service with the Company terminates for any reason (including without limitation, for death or disability) prior to the Change of Control date, you shall not be entitled to receive accelerated vesting of stock options.

2. Successors. Any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets shall assume the obligations under this letter and agree expressly to perform the obligations under this letter in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform such obligations in the absence of a succession. For all purposes under this letter, the term “Company” shall include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets which executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in this Section 3 or which becomes bound by the terms of this letter by operation of law.

3. Law Governing; Arbitration. This letter shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this letter shall be settled exclusively in arbitration conducted in Santa Clara County, California, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction. Punitive damages shall not be awarded. In any arbitration proceeding, the party determined to be the prevailing party will be entitled to receive, in addition to any other award, its attorneys’ fees and expenses of the proceeding.

4. Employment and Income Taxes. All payments made pursuant to this letter will be subject to withholding of applicable employment and income taxes, if any.

5. At-Will Employment. Of course, your employment with the Company will continue to be on an “at will” basis, meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time for any reason or no reason, without further obligation or liability. The Company also reserves the right to modify or amend the terms of your employment (other than those set forth in this letter) at any time for any reason. This policy of at-will employment is the entire agreement as to the subject matter hereof, and may only be modified in an express written agreement signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

6. Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall automatically terminate in its entirety should you cease to be the Vice President of Products and Services of the Company prior to a Change of Control.

By your signature below, you indicate that you agree to the terms set out in this letter.

Very truly yours,

Date: 10/20/03

(c) The stockholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at least 50% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.
